"Oh new people. They don't seem to be beast totems but they look tasty to me." the woman said in the same sexy and seducing tone. totally oblivious of the fact that they were levitating in air and some of them were there without any external support.
"I don't think I will be tasty Miss Bora." John who was the first to speak replied to her in a very jolly smile. He didn't even care that she just insulted them as prey. When John spoke the name of her, it jolted her and the others.
No person had known their names for ages outside of the family. This was a totally new revelation for them.
"You must be Brix. Twin of her. Isn't it exhausting competing with her always in trying to kill Spider-Man in every universe. In all honesty, I will be quite irritated." John continued as he levitated down with the others.
Bora and Brix. That was the name of their twins. Siblings of Karn. There were other siblings too but they didn't come.
Now all of them were little unsettled. They didn't expect this new person to know such rivalry of them too. Brix, who saw, that this unknown person was distracted in talking with Bora jumped on him.
But as he was in the air to stab John with his knife, chains started coming from from surrounding and pinned him to the ground with a loud bang. Bora and Karn both got the scare of their lives.
Brix got banged on the ground by just a single move of someone who didn't even move his body and inch. They thought the new people appearing were just for show but this sudden change of events was not what they expected.
Bora got angry the next moment seeing her brother pinned down and being unconscious.
"You bast**d!!"
Saying that like her brother she too jumped at John but this time she was stopped by someone else. before she could come close to John, Diana almost teleported near her and choked her on her throat.
Bora's body was held high in the air by Diana. She used her hands trying to free herself from Diana's grip. But she couldn't even move her fingers, let alone her hand.
"That was dramatic." Tony whispered.
"Karn, do you want to go on a round with us? I will be glad to entertain you like your siblings." John said and this time too with a jolly smile. Karn got scared to even move. When these people showed up he already had a bad feeling and now his two siblings were totally defeated in one single move.
He shook his head and put his hands up. He knew where he had to surrender or he would be brutally taken down by these smiling faces. Just the smile of the guy talking gave him chills.
"Put them behind bars." John said. And his words were law as all had appeared at the Hall while the other 3 were put in a new prison that appeared out of thin air. They were back at the Ring.
"This guy can change realities at will." Andrew mumbled.
"This was an easy job. Steve, you will have to bring out the truth." Clark said as by now all knew that Steve and Diana were basically the 'truth serum' of their team.
"Gladly. It's a pity I didn't get to move against them." Steve said.
"These are clones. You can join the real party once we get to their lair." Tony said assuring him of the action. John meanwhile went to the makeshift prison where Karn was sitting silently.
He had never seen such powers by anyone where they got teleported just by the words of a man. And even his dimensional portal didn't work. This time they really encountered a huge wall and the enemy was powerful beyond belief.
"Karn. it must be hard for you. Living in hunger and trying to get recognition from the family." John said. The other Avengers were surprised that John just used different tone to talk to Karn.
He looked at John but didn't open his mouth.
"I respect you resolve. You have been suffering and looked down upon for such a long time and still try to get validation from the same family. That takes a lot a toxicity in someone'e life to adhere to that belief." John said as he mocked Karn. None of the Avengers stopped John in this interrogation as he had more knowledge in this regard.
"You know nothing of me." Karn reiterated and opened his mouth for the first time. John just shook his head and didn't continue to taunt Karn. His life was tragic to say the least.
"Wake them up. We need information about their location." John said. And Victor went to pour water on the unconscious twins.
